Karen Spencer Speaks at the 4th Annual Not For Profit Educational Leadership Summit

Award Winning Graphic Designer and Small Business
Owner Shares Leadership Strategies and Business Best Practices

Armonk, NY, October 25, 2010 —
Karen Spencer,
President and Creative Director at Karen Spencer Design, Inc., a
creative services agency in Armonk, New York,
recently spoke at the 4th annual Not For Profit
Educational Leadership Summit titled Utilizing
Corporate Strategies: Charting the Course to the
Future. The Summit was held on October 14, 2010
at the Westchester Marriott Hotel, Tarrytown, New York.

The Summit, sponsored by Entergy, the Hospitality
Resource Group, Inc., the Chubb Corporation,
Maier Markey & Justic, LLP, and The Rollins
Agency, Inc., brought leaders together from the
not-for-profit and corporate sectors to share
best practices and corporate driven solutions
that grow agency visibility, strengthen economic
engines and enhance program delivery strategies.

"It was an honor to speak at this year's
Educational Leadership Summit," said
Spencer. "The team at Karen Spencer Design has
worked with many organizations in the
not-for-profit sector. I have experienced
first hand the challenges they face, from both a
business management and marketing standpoint. My topic, Successful Fundraising in an Uncertain Economy was a challenge because I really wanted to give my audience something of substance to take away with them. However since a number of our not-for-profit clients have been able to consistently exceed their fundraising goals, even during the past two and half years, I was able to draw on the strategies we have developed for them and deliver some marketing key suggestions.
It was a pleasure to share the strategies and
practices that been successful for these not-for-profits."
